Have You Heard the Buzz?

Did you know...

1. Honeybees are the only insects that produce food for humans:
And some of our favorites -- citrus, tomatoes, blueberries and pumpkins are completely dependent upon honey bee pollination.

Every third bite we consume in our diet is dependent
on a honey bee to pollinate that food
Zac Browning, American Beekeeping Federation.

2. Bees from the same hive visit about 225,000 flowers per day:
And one single bee usually visits between 50-1000 flowers a day, but can visit up to several thousand.
